The new 5S Energy Station from ExploMar is a renewable energy fast-charging system.
The Station follows on from ExploMar’s high-performance electric outboard system development and combines photovoltaic technology, energy storage, and fast-charging stations to provide independent charging solutions for electric boats.
The new system is suitable for existing docks, islands, and remote waterways.
The 5S system has been designed to address challenges such as inadequate power supply, weak grid infrastructure, high electricity costs, and underdeveloped power networks.
The system is equipped with a 300kW solar system and can generate up to 1500kWh of photovoltaic energy daily.
“While our clients are committed to sustainability, they frequently encounter natural limitations and economic challenges,” said ExploMar’s CEO, Alex Dong.
“To address these issues, we have developed a comprehensive 5S energy solution that encompasses the entire user journey in electric water mobility.
“Users who share this vision will find it much easier to engage without concerns about energy supply.
“By providing more than just a powertrain system, we aim to drive the electric water mobility ecosystem forward.”
The system can charge up to 35 boats equipped with WAVE 70 electric outboard motors and HEDB 40 batteries, or six boats with WAVE 300 electric outboard motors and HEDB 240 batteries in one day.
The 5S Energy Solution – representing Solar, Self-supply, Storage, Scale and Sales – integrates with ExploMar’s high energy density batteries, allowing for rapid charging.
The modular and transportable design has been developed for easy deployment and scalability of electric fleets, while providing multi-layer protection for reliable performance in harsh environments.
Long-lasting operation
Energy can be stored to ensure reserves are available during low-sunlight periods and surplus energy can be sold back to the grid.
Additionally, the system features CX corrosion resistance and an IP55-rated cooling system for long-lasting operation.
“With our project experience, we have seen that piecing together separate components frequently leads to instability and ineffective solutions,” added Alex.
“This is precisely why we prioritise offering fully integrated electric outboard systems. Our 5S Energy Solution is a clear demonstration of our unwavering commitment to systematic thinking and comprehensive solutions, ensuring reliability and performance in every application.”
